    [Resolved] Mouse clicking Sound virus

    Hi there,

    I'm going crazy trying to solve this issue I have, it's really got me stumped.

    A few days ago, I started hearing random mouse click sounds as soon as I started up my system. I thought it was odd because I have all windows sounds disabled.The clicks are random, sometimes just one sometimes a couple and a double click, usually every minute or so.

    So I double checked and they were still disabled. I thought maybe there was something open that was running and making these noises independently but I checked task manager/process xp and couldn't see anything out of the ordinary. I suspect its not my mouse/keyboard because it happens even if they are unplugged.

    This is when I began suspecting it was a virus. Amittedly, I hadn't installed an antivirus on my machine so I instantly downloaded Avira to check my system. It found a few trojans in my temp folders and dealt with them, but it was still happening.

    So i removed my system restore points, booted into safe mode, ran malwarebytes, hijackthis and avira and removed whatever I found.

    But it's still happening, and I'm not sure what else to try. Looking through processxp I notice a couple of suspicious svchosts that if I try to kill, just pop up again.

    Checking the command line option of the Image shows how they started up:
    on all of the legit ones they begin with a command line such as:
    C:\WINDOWS\System32\svchost.exe -k netsvcs

    but in the two suspicious ones they simply say
    svchost.exe 4

    as the command line.

    I've embedded the requested info and hopefully you guys can help me solve this annoying problem.

    I see you have P2P software ( Azures, Limewire, BitTorrent, uTorrent etc…) installed on your machine. We are not here to pass judgment on file-sharing as a concept. However, we will warn you that engaging in this activity and having this kind of software installed on your machine will always make you more susceptible to re-infections. It may be contributing to your current situation. This page will give you further information.

    Please note: Even if you are using a "safe" P2P program, it is only the program that is safe. You will be sharing files from uncertified sources, and these are often infected. The bad guys use P2P filesharing as a major conduit to spread their wares and their infections.

    References for the risk of these programs are here, and here.

    I would strongly recommend that you uninstall them, and read the links above for educational value!

    Note: Please be advised that continued use of these programs after being warned of the danger of infections from them, may result in the discontinued help of future cleaning of your system here at WindowsBBS Malware and Virus removal.

    A Malware expert will have a look at your log in due course.

    Definitely those 2 svchosts

    Using processxp I've managed to suspend the two suspicious svchosts that were running and the clicking has stopped.

    I think when I tried to kill them earlier, because I can only do it one at a time, one svchost was replacing the closed one before I had a chance to kill them both.

    Hope this helps somewhat.

    STEP 1. Download Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware (aka MBAM): http://www.malwarebytes.org/mbam.php to your desktop.
    (Malwarebytes is free to use as a manual scanner. Payment is only required if you wish to have it run and update automatically which is not necessary for our purposes)

    * Double-click mbam-setup.exe and follow the prompts to install the program.
    * At the end, be sure a checkmark is placed next to Update Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware and Launch Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware, then click Finish.
    * If an update is found, it will download and install the latest version.
    * Once the program has loaded, select Perform Quick Scan, then click Scan.
    * When the scan is complete, click OK, then Show Results to view the results.
    * Be sure that everything is checked, and click Remove Selected.
    * When completed, a log will open in Notepad.
    * Post the log back here.

    The log can also be found here:
    C:\Documents and Settings\Username\Application Data\Malwarebytes\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt
    Or at C:\Program Files\Malwarebytes' Anti-Malware\Logs\log-date.txt


    STEP 2. Download GMER: http://www.gmer.net/files.php, by clicking on Download EXE button.
    Alternative downloads:
    - http://majorgeeks.com/GMER_d5198.html
    - http://www.softpedia.com/get/Interne...ers/GMER.shtml
    Double click on downloaded .exe file, select Rootkit tab and click the Scan button.
    Do NOT use the computer while GMER is running!
    When scan is completed, click Save button, and save the results as gmer.log
    Warning ! Please, do not select the "Show all" checkbox during the scan.
    Post the log to your next reply.

    IMPORTANT! If for some reason GMER refuses to run, try again.
    If it still fails, try to UN-check "Devices" in right pane.
    If still no joy, try to run it from Safe Mode.



    DO NOT make any other changes to your computer (like installing programs, using other cleaning tools, etc.), until it's officially declared clean!!!

    Your MBAM log says "No action taken" after malicious finding.
    Please, re-run MBAM and fix the issue this time.

    I've removed it, but it is still happening.

    We'll fix that (I can see the culprit), but I still want to see latest MBAM log.

    When done....

    Please download ComboFix from [color= "Red"]Here[/color] or [color= "#FF0000"]Here[/color] to your Desktop.

    [color= "Blue"]**Note: In the event you already have Combofix, this is a new version that I need you to download. It is important that it is saved directly to your desktop**[/color]
    1. Please, never rename Combofix unless instructed.
    2. Close any open browsers.
    3. Close/disable all anti virus and anti malware programs so they do not interfere with the running of ComboFix.
      • Very Important! Temporarily disable your anti-virus, script blocking and any anti-malware real-time protection before performing a scan. They can interfere with ComboFix or remove some of its embedded files which may cause "unpredictable results ".
      • Click on [color= "Red"]this link[/color] to see a list of programs that should be disabled. The list is not all inclusive. If yours is not listed and you don't know how to disable it, please ask.
      NOTE1. If Combofix asks you to install Recovery Console, please allow it.
      NOTE 2. If Combofix asks you to update the program, always do so.
      • Close any open browsers.
      • [color= "Red"]WARNING:[/color] Combofix will disconnect your machine from the Internet as soon as it starts
      • Please do not attempt to re-connect your machine back to the Internet until Combofix has completely finished.
      • If there is no internet connection after running Combofix, then restart your computer to restore back your connection.
    4. Double click on combofix.exe & follow the prompts.
    5. When finished, it will produce a report for you.
    6. Please post the "C:\ComboFix.txt"
    **Note: Do not mouseclick combofix's window while it's running. That may cause it to stall**

    Make sure, you re-enable your security programs, when you're done with Combofix.

    DO NOT make any other changes to your computer (like installing programs, using other cleaning tools, etc.), until it's officially declared clean!!!

    Download MBRCheck to your desktop

    Double click MBRCheck.exe to run (Vista and Windows 7 users, right click and select Run as Administrator).
    It will show a black screen with some data on it.
    A report called MBRcheckxxxx.txt will be on your desktop
    Open this report and post its content in your next reply.

    Hmm, this is what I get.

    Do I have to run it from a specific directory / safe mode?

    Rerun MBRCheck.
    Enter 'Y' and hit ENTER for more options and select option "2 ".
    When asked for physical disk number, enter 0 (zero).
    Next, enter 1 (Windows XP) for MBR code.
    Post resulting log.

    ==============================================================

    Also, you didn't follow instructions:
    Please, move Combofix.exe to your desktop.

    No.
    Just move Combofix.exe file from c:\applications\Anti Virus folder to your desktop.

    ...and run prescribed MBRCheck fix from my previous reply.

    I reran MBRCheck
    type 'y' and hit enter, and it just closed. No options given.

    I tried again thinking it was case sensitive with a 'Y' but it still closes when I hit enter

    It happens, when MBR is badly messed up by a bootkit.

    Restart computer
    When you reboot you will see an option to boot into the Recovery Console or the normal Windows installation.
    You have to use the up/down arrows to choose the Recovery Console. Then press Enter but you only have 2 seconds by default.
    If you find this hard to do then you can go into Control Panel, System, Advanced, Startup and Recovery, Settings. Where it says Time to Display List of Operating Systems, change it to 10 or more seconds. OK Then reboot.

    You should get a black screen with a C:\> prompt. Type with an Enter after each line:

    fixmbr

    (If it asks you if you are sure then say "Y ".)

    exit

    Reboot computer.

    Re-run MBRCheck and post fresh log.
